Starter home: Skibbereen, West Cork €150,000

There’s great scope and good value at the terraced Skibbereen townhouse called Park View.

Listed with local agent Pat Maguire at just €150,000, and right on the main Cork Road approach to the bustling West Cork town’s centre, it’s a period style home of character with up to five bedrooms, and has a redone kitchen, but needs some further updating yet.
